Yasaka Rising Dragon

Yasaka rising dragon is a rubber in my eyes I would recommend for highly trained attackers who play the spin game. It delivers a good contrast of both speed and spin with great control, I used this on the mazunov butterfly blade and do reccomend it on quick blades , a shout to jarvis sports for delivering a sample of this rubber , yasaka is a great brand and is still developing , this rubber was a remarkable suprise, I will uploading a video soon, this is highly recommended!

This is a very welcome surprise. A rubber for those that likes a sticky surface, and a speedy sponge. It is not as tacky as a chinese rubber, and is speedier with a medium/low throw angle. Its like the description: Spin of China, speed of Euro, and touch of Japan. It plays more like a euro/japan-rubber than a chinese tacky H3/Neo.

This spin machine, i think, plays best on a speedier blade like carbon/fast wood. Tried it on Donic Diacon, Nittaku Redshank (thin carbon) and Stiga Rosewood NCT 7. Speed is very good for a tacky rubber. Very good for serves, service-return and top-spin play. Touch shots also very good. Recommended as a forehand-rubber. Its easily the best sticky rubber i have tried and incredibly fun to play with. When i played for the first time, i hit quite a few heavy sidespin-loops that had so much spin that it actually went past my opponents blade! I just laughed, and he too!
